Benefits of technology

[0021] In edit mode, the system accepts a user modification input such as a mashup or cut for example. The system uses the user modification input to generate a cutlist. The cutlist hence allows a user to skip a portion of the video, mute, hide the video or show or hide a subtitle or text for example. The system accepts uploads, presents cutlists and provides downloads of the authored cutlist in web based embodiments of the invention.

Problems solved by technology

Cuts in videos are time windows or scenes that are not desired or that may not be appropriate for certain viewing audiences.

Abstract

Plays videos in conjunction with a “cutlist” utilized to modify the video. Videos include any visual media such as online or streaming video, broadcast television or movies, digital media files having a video component or DVDs. The videos may originate from any location such as online, on YOUTUBE.COM®, cable television, or a local resource such as a digital media file or DVD. Cutlists may include “mashups” and “cuts”. Mashups add content and include additional user generated input such as text, audio, commentary, graphics, avatar overlays, advertisements or other video. Cuts allow skipping of video and are time windows or scenes that are not to be viewed. The modified video may be viewed on any device associated with a video display. Cutlists may be shared among users to modify the performance of original video source without modifying the video itself, therein bypassing any copyright issues.
